Even kids know that we should wait for the traffic light to turn green before crossing a road, but not everybody follows this basic rule.__________________________. Chinese people “cross roads without thinking about traffic lights, so long as(只要)they are part of a crowd”, said a post on Sina Weibo.
A CCTV news program showed that in only an hour, more than 600 people jumped red lights when crossing a road at a crossing in Shijiazhuang, Hebei.__________________________. Such an opinion is supported by a research team at Tongji University.
The team did research on people’s waiting times at different road crossings from 2008 to 2010. ____________________________.
“People are likely to ignore(忽视)the light when the waiting time is longer than they can stand,” said Ni Ying, a member of the research team.
However, a survey on Sina Weibo suggested that half of respondents(调查对象)believe that people jaywalk mainly because they disregard(忽视)rules.
“I always obey traffic rules. ________________________,” wrote “Qixiaoe” on Weibo.
Many countries give out punishments to jaywalkers. In Singapore, the maximum(最大量) can be three months in prison. Some Chinese cities have started taking some actions, too. For example, the first three people in a jaywalking group will be fined 50 yuan in Shijiazhuang.

Can you imagine living without the World Wide Web?
March 12 is the “birthday” of the World Wide Web, or the Web for short. Twenty-five years ago on that day, British engineer Tim Berners-Lee wrote a proposal (提议) to set up “pages” of information that are connected to each other around the world. It laid the foundation for the World Wide Web.
Since then, the Web has changed the way people live.
Now, 25 years after its birth, how will the Web influence life in the future?
The Pew Research Center talked to thousands of experts. They believe there are both good and bad sides.
A growing Web will help different cultures build “better relationships”, said the Pew report.
Also in the future, everyday items could be connected to the Web. So one day in the future, your front door could send you a message: “Dear sir, everyone has left the house, but I’m still open!”
But scientists also warn us about the loss of privacy. No matter what, don’t spend your whole day in front of the screen, said the founder of the Web.
“We have to make sure technology doesn’t drive that out,” said Berners-Lee.
A.If we share personal information online, it could get into the wrong hands. B.With a click of a mouse we can buy things, make friends, read news and learn anything we’re interested in. C.We need to see green stuff, to be in the open, and see the sun. D.They could share information to make our daily lives easier. E.It sounds hard, but that kind of life was not very long ago. |
